what other bits do i need (head bolts...what else)

Woodford are doing the new redesigned Cometic 3 layer for £117.50 at the mo
Interested to hear any input on Ferradays gaskets, seem popular with the RST boys but not seen anyone mention them for cossies
You'll need;
Head gasket
Head bolts
Rocker cover gasket (buy cometic, only a couple of quid deared and reusable) & 2 x half moon seals
If they leaking use the opportunity to replace the camshaft seals and last time I replaced inlet manifold, plenum & exhaust manifold gaskets with cometic ones while the heads off.
Then just the obvious oil, filter & anti freeze & make sure you get the surface of the head checked
Can't think of any thing else you'll need.
